Steam at a pressure of 3 MN/m2, at a temperature of 250°C and flowing at a rate of 3 kg/s is throttled to a pressure of 900 kN/m2. It is then mixed with steam at a pressure of 900 N/m2 and at a dryness fraction of 0.8. which has a flow rate of 6kg/s. Determine i)   The condition of the resulting steam mixture                   ii)   The internal diameter of the pipe to convey the steam at a pressure of 2 MN/m2 if the velocity of the steam is limited to 18 m/s.

Question

Steam at a pressure of 3 MN/m2, at a temperature of 250°C and flowing at a rate of 3 kg/s is throttled to a pressure of 900 kN/m2. It is then mixed with steam at a pressure of 900 N/m2 and at a dryness fraction of 0.8. which has a flow rate of 6kg/s.

Determine

i)   The condition of the resulting steam mixture                  

ii)   The internal diameter of the pipe to convey the steam at a pressure of 2 MN/m2 if the velocity of the steam is limited to 18 m/s.
